Abstract

Du nouveau sur les rédactions des Mémoires d’outre-tombe
This study provides a material and micro textual approach to some passages that are present in the only complete manuscript of Chateaubriand’s Mémoires d’outre-tombe (the copy sent to the notary Cahouet in 1847) and in the first edition of the work (Penaud 1849- 1850). An original analysis of the pagination of the manuscript sent to Cahouet, connected with the examination of a fragment published by M.-J. Durry in 1933 and later deleted, as well as the collation of the references to the revisions carried out in the text, allow us to provide some evidence of Chateubriand’s latest corrections.
